GARCIA, Claudia María. Possibilities and Challenges of Solidarity Organizations: the Case of Recyclers' Organizations in Bogotá. Divers.: Perspect. Psicol. [online]. 2011, vol.7, n.2, pp.265-280. ISSN 1794-9998.

This paper is the result of an approach made to a recyclers association in Bogotá, in order to observe how the organizational process has been for a group of workers bound to conform associative processes within working conditions sustained on individualistic and immediate logics. From the results, it was possible to see how the organizational process has fostered social and political recognition for the associated, the construction of a collective dynamic in tension with the individual work logic and the transformation of deliberative, relational and leadership practices. The difficulties faced by the recyclers' organizations force to build new scenarios of collaboration networks with private and public organizations to promote the development and viability of these associations.

Keywords : alternative organizations; social organizations; recyclers; labor subjectivities; informal work.
